If there’s one thing I know, it’s how to plan a party. Throughout my nine-year career at Brightcove, I’ve helped produce some of the company’s largest events on behalf of the corporate marketing team. This includes Brightcove’s biggest and baddest party: our annual conference, Brightcove PLAY.
A lot has changed since the first days of live streaming—but has it become easier or more complex to “go live?” We’ve worked out a practical, step-by-step timeline for planning and executing live events—from establishing a strategy and promoting a live stream, to creating VOD assets after the stream ends.
Content Marketing World was a great time this year as always—and our Brightcove PLAY Studio was full of engaged, passionate video marketers. I'm waving a virtual “hello” to all those wonderful people who attended. Throughout our five-hour workshop, I noticed that some questions popped up again and again.
Putting on an event and then streaming it live is a big investment of time, money and creativity, so you want to ensure you reach as many people as possible.
Couldn’t be at #PLAY2018? Our #REPLAY series will cover themes and highlights from this year’s event.
Without a doubt, the most important part of a live stream happens in the preparation. You’ve heard of Murphy’s law: Anything that can go wrong will go wrong.
